First Impression Review

The R15 version 2.0 was made out an update to the already proven version. When compared, the new R15 version 2.0 has sharp looks and style that looks and feel much better in performance at circuits. Yamaha has drawn inspiration from the design styles of supersport model YZF-R1 that is adapted from YZR-M1 MotoGP race machine. Yamaha seems to retain the iconic dual headlamp, 5-spoke wheels, LED tail lamp, and wider radial rear tyre, while the new additions come from the split seat.

The new R15 V 2.0 has the same engine borrowed from the predecessor. Yamaha has tweaked the engine to be more precise in driving out more torque and power at all rev ranges. The major advantages of the R15 is the rigid and powerful Deltabox frame, which delivers superior rigidity balance. Yamaha has designed this frame to provide the best balance in longitudinal, lateral, and torsional rigidity. The deltabox frame ensures a very comfortable and agile riding performance on both city roads as well as the circuit.The 149cc Liquid-cooled produces a maximum power of 17PS @ 8,500rpm and a maximum torque of 15N.m @ 7,500rpm. The new version comes with an aluminium swingarm and is the first Indian bike model with aluminium long rear arm which improves handling in the turns and cornering.

Yamaha has made the chain adjustment assembly to be at the end of the rear arm which can be seen in Super sports models and this improves adjustment capability of the bike. The suspension duties of the bike are done with telescopic at the front while the rear suspension is a Linked type Monocross setup. The brakes of the R15 Version 20. is done with Hydraulic, single disc at the front and rear. The overall weight of the bike is 136 kg.

Looks dashing. The all new version is way better than its predecessor. still the pillion rider seat is too sporty. we need a ladder to reach there. and seats are hard to. so long rides are impossible.

R15 v2 is my dream bike fully with a sport model for low cost but the mileage is very low and the seat is not comfortable

By Sunil on 20-09-2015

***three star for R15 v2 ,the reasaon I gave 3 star is dat . It has a cool looking n stylish like the other expensive bike, it may also fool girls by riding since it is hot looking .n the reason about the remaining 2 stars is that. it is stylish the seat is high u can't ride with ur family ,and also in emergency three people to ride is out of question, u know in bajaj platina believe it or not we can ride four people comfortably, and one thing is that the mileage is 33 km per liter n only 150 cc .the parts price is also high,once u got an accident or something lyk dat ,its better u throw it .it will cost u .and also about fooling girl ,u can fool only flirty girls second hand wala ,not obedient and intelligent gal .

i love my r15 very much,
its not a normal bike it feels like a pakka sporty bike.
i feel very comfortable with my r15,
i would like to share one thing i am sure no one have to belive me,
that is my machine gives me millage of 50-55kmpl(note:i am only a highway rider)
if u add K&N air filter and branded exhaust means surly this machine like a monster,
my cons is; headlight(even mokka bikes having projector but this not)
